Descriptive statistics, probability, statistical inference.
Descriptive statistics and statistical software -R- will be dealt with through the whole course.
R1. To perform descriptive statistical analysis to databases.
R2. To apply appropriate statistical treatments according to the nature of the statistical variables in databases.
R3. To use a statistical package for statistical analysis of databases and simulation results of random phenomena.
R4. To recognize the main probability distributions, both discrete and continuous, together with methods general of probability.
R5. To use statistical tools to adequately estimate the unknown model parameters raised in engineering by methods of point estimation and intervals.
R6. To learn statistical techniques for facilitating the process of decision making in uncertain environment.
